## Abstract ## Purpose: To determine the relationship between changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM) and T~1ρ~ and T~2~ values in vivo. The ECM is composed of proteoglycan (PG), collagen, and water. It has been unclear which of the ECM constituents affects T~1ρ~ and T~2~ mapping in living human
## Abstract T~1ρ~ describes the spin‐lattice relaxation in the rotating frame and has been proposed for detecting damage to the cartilage collagen‐proteoglycan matrix in osteoarthritis. In this study, a multi‐slice T~1ρ~ imaging method for knee cartilage was developed using spin‐lock techniques and
